Originally from rural Wisconsin, I now live in the Twin Cities and work as a music teacher and chart-slinger. But my country background has instilled in me a love of wildlife and forests and therefore I search for creatures in the city. And report about them here! I have a delightful husband, R, and fabulous friends, here and abroad. Eaters of popcorn, slow runners, booty-shakers, makeup mavens and good cooks are especially welcome! I hope everyone enjoys my slightly informative and random page!

update September 27, 2018: SORRY! There was a massive server failure this morning and the site was down about 20 hours.
Luckily, this is why I pay extra for good backups, so everything should be fine now - let me know if you have any trouble.
